Roll 295

Moving from the Bay Area with a roll of film loaded.

I was way behind on cutting, sleeving, and organizing negatives and just went heads down to speed through as many rolls as possible.

This roll was a fun one to come across — it’s the transition roll when I moved from San Francisco to LA, so it’s fun to see some of my favorite spots in both places represented. I’m also realizing it’s coming up to my three year LA-versary, which is crazy to me that it’s been that long here.

All shots from the Leicaflex SL2 + 50mm Summicron + Eastman Double-X, August 20–27, 2023.


City views from Hawk Hill and with Black Sands Beach in view. These sure do look grainy; maybe I shot these at EI 400 or something?
